Cops get justice on cop killer

This guy stabbed an 84 year old woman, shot and killed a detective and then ran from other officers. Then they beat the living ........ out of him. I think he got what was coming to him. He's luck they didn't just fill him with lead.

I think more of this needs to happen. Our jails are not tough enough. People aren't scared of going to them. People aren't afraid to screw up. I think more of this would do us some good.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think every crime deserves a beating like this, but you kill someone, or ruin someone else's life, you should pay for it one way or another. None of this 5 years and you're back on the street garbage.

You don't look like that just jumping out of a third story window. Don't be naive. He might have broken a leg or something jumping out of a window that high, but unless he landed on his face and then picked his own head up and bounced it off of the pavement a few times, I don't think his injuries are just from the fall.

EDIT: Another article I read stated that the FBI is looking into police brutality charges.

Agreed. And it's tough to get the angle and momentum just right to land on your face.

I don't have any problem with the beatdown that he apparently recieved, but I do think that it's wrong for a police officer's murder to count for more than a regular person's murder. Is an on-duty police officer's life worth more than anyone else's?

If I did your homework for you, then you might pass your class without learning how to write a program like this. Then you might graduate and get your degree without learning how to write a program like this. You might become a professional programmer without knowing how to write a program like this. Someday you might work on a project with me without knowing how to write a program like this. Then I would have to do you serious bodily harm. - Jack Klein

I think heīs even still lucky to be alive, jumping out from a window that heigh and still live trough it is amazing...

At my brotherīs work someone fell of a platform that was about 15 meters high, straight onto ice of half a meter thick.
If not for the ice he wouldīve died since he had 4 broken ribs, internal bleedings in his head, a cracked liver and so on ... His body temperature was around 33 degrees Celcius when they got him to hospital and that is probably what saved his life.

So i think that it can be very much possible that he has all these injuries of the fall.
Of course theres a chance police brutality might be involved , but who will know.

And if it was police brutality that caused all these injuries then i cannot blame the policemen who did it ... After all they are human beings just like you and me, and they saw their partner - friend lying dead on the floor somewhere , i think that at that moment you wont be able to think very clear and understand the risks of the actions you do next.

I'd say yes, but I don't think that's the best argument for tougher sentences for cop-killers. Someone who would go so far as to kill an on-duty police officer is much more of a danger to the public than someone who killed someone else like say his wife's lover. I know that's a difficult distinction to make, but I still think there should be a greater disincentive to murder a police officer.
